In
the most beautiful part of the Rioja Alavesa rises
the surprising silhouette of Ysios . Conceived as
the spearhead of the D.O. Rioja in the 21st century,
it is fully integrated into the landscape, at the
foot of the Sierra de Cantabria which protects it
from the north-westerly winds. The bodega surprises
and fascinates anyone who visits this privileged
land, regarded as one of the best places in the
world for growing vines.
The
architect Santiago Calatrava designed it from the
sublimation of the outline of a row of barrels.
Inside, too, you will find the same ultra-modern
style.
All
this innovation is set against a traditional process
of producing and ageing the wine by plots. In this
way, a modern Reserva wine is born, Ysios , with
a good balance between fruit and the reminders of
toasted oak, which expresses and respects the particular
personality of the vines from which it comes
The Ysios bodega was designed by Santiago Calatrava
to blend into the landscape of Laguardia, at the
base of the Sierra de Cantabria. The bodega features
a mixture of modern style and practical design to
facilitate the winemaking process .
Wines
are made from grapes grown in the bodegas own vineyards,
preserving all the personality of each of the terroirs.
There are three main plots covering a total area
of 50 hectares .
